Brief Answer:
You need a consultation from a Hematologist !!!
Detailed Answer:
Welcome back and thanks for the consultation at my virtual clinic!
I appreciate your efforts for uploading the pictures. I have reviewed your labs and that's what I was suspecting and ordered for additional testing for that. You have Normal/High levels of Total Iron; have Low TIBC and Low UIBC; and high levels of Transferrin saturation--All of this makes a picture of either a disease named Hemochromatosis OR Sideroblastic- OR Hemolytic-anemia.
What is needed next: Your thorough in-person Physical examination with keeping in mind the background of your medical history and Labs. Your Hemoglobin was not that low.
For that you need to make an appointment with a Hematologist as per your ease for thorough evaluation. He may go for further testing if needed.
